For really the first time since Baby Gem was born at the end of August, I actually did a freezer cooking session for the month! Well, it turned out to be two different sessions; one on a random weekday when everything happened to be relatively calm and one on Saturday.

I was glad to get this much accomplished, since finding time for cooking from scratch is a lot harder these days!

However, I still don't feel like my freezer is fully stocked for the month. For one thing, we seem to eat a lot more a lot more quickly than we used to, between a hungry breastfeeding Mommy and growing kids. It seems like we've already eaten a decent amount of this stuff! Also I think that since I can no longer find the time to spend one entire day cooking and have to spread it out into smaller sessions, I feel less productive.

Still, it is so helpful to have some baked goods and dinner items prepared ahead of time, even if we do eat them up in a week or two.
